The plot thickens.......

I just got back from Wayne's ( dude who is performing the conversion). The flywheel #s are C3OE-6380B If I am correct, that code indicates it is from a 1963 vehicle. Must be from a 260?? The width of the wheel (not including the band of teeth/ring gear) is a hair under 12 1/4". Anyway, I hope this will work w/ a 10" clutch and pressure plate. How could it not? I am attempting to include pics. Notice the holes drilled into the wheel for balancing purposes.

Ok. Something just occured to me. Why couldnt I get a flywheel compatible with a 11" clutch/pressure plate and make it to weigh the same as the one in the pic? ??? That shouldnt screw up the balancing, right??? It sounds too simple to work, but why wouldnt it??

The guy who rebuilt my engine told me today that this can be done.
